medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Herewith a link to an earlier (2010) 'Saints of the day' for 1. October (including St. Piatus of Seclin; Sts. Verissima, Maxima, and Julia; St. Romanus the Melode; St. Nicetius of Trier; St. Bavo):

Further to Piatus:
In the lemma to that earlier post's notice of this saint, for 'Piatus' please read 'Piatus of Seclin'. This saint is also known as Piatus of Tournai.
In the same notice, the link to the French-language account of the originally twelfth-century église Saint-Piat at Tournai still functions. Herewith a revised set of views of this church:

In the same notice, the link to the page of representations of Piatus in the cathedral of Chartres no longer functions. Go here:
http://digital.library.pitt.edu/cgi-bin/i/image/image-idx?c=chartres;page=search
and search for 'Piat'. Although Chartres claimed to have the body of the saint of Seclin, the fact that its chapel of St. Piat otherwise honors putative relics of Breton saints rather suggests that the Piatus here was in origin a Breton homonym.
Further to Verissima, Maxima, and Julia:
In the second paragraph of that earlier post's notice of these saints, for '1474' please read '1475'.
Further to Romanus the Melode:
Other depictions of this saint:
Romanus the Melode as depicted in the earlier fourteenth-century frescoes (betw. ca. 1308 and ca. 1320) by Michael Astrapas and Eutychios in the church of St. Nicetas the Goth (Sv. Nikita) at Čučer in today's Čučer-Sandevo in the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia:

Not specifically labeled as the Melode but iconographically so similar to images so identified as to almost certainly be depictions of the same saint (and thus probably not St. Romanus of Antioch, who also was a deacon) are:
Romanus as depicted in the later thirteenth-century frescoes (ca. 1295) by Michael Astrapas and Eutychios in the church of the Peribleptos (now Sv. Climent Novi) in Ohrid:

AND
Romanus as depicted in the earlier fourteenth-century frescoes (1330s) of the church of the Hodegetria in the Patriarchate of Peć at Peć in, depending on one's view of the matter, either the Republic of Kosovo or Serbia's province of Kosovo and Metohija:

Further to Bavo:
In that earlier post's notice of this saint, the second link to single views of the Sint Baafskerk at Aardenburg in Sluis (Zeeuws-Vlaanderen) no longer functions. Herewith a revised set of views of this church:

A page of multiple views (mostly interior):

In the same notice, the link to the illustrated, Dutch-language page on the parochiekerk Sint-Bavo (Sint Baafskerk) in Zellik no longer functions. Use this instead:
